Things have come to such a pass that hope hath well nigh been banished from the hearts of Thy chosen ones, and the breaths of despair are ready to seize them, by reason of what hath befallen them in Thy days.
- Bahá’u’lláh, Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh, p. 335-336
Quote of the Day
Fidal 5 Mulk 182 B.E.
